Summary

Everything you need to know about vulvovaginitis: candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, and Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. Join us on the journey of a lifetime as we learn all about diagnosing, treating and managing vulvovaginal conditions in patients of all ages. Plus, a bit on how to recognize and treat lichen sclerosus. Our brilliant guest for this episode is Dr. Monica Christmas (@drmonicaxmas on Twitter), who is a self-described yoga enthusiast, avid reader, wannabe artist and gynecologist. Dr. Christmas is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago in the section of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery where she is the director of the Menopause Program. Monica specializes in gynecologic surgery, abnormal uterine bleeding and menopause management with an interest in sexual dysfunction. Her focus is on helping women live healthy, vibrant, happy lives.
